Summary of article contents:
Hair plays an important role in making body externally beautiful healthy and good looking. In Ayurveda falling of hair is termed as Khalitya 1 . Ayurveda has explained various treatment modalities, among them Nasya (Trans nasal drug administration) 2 & Murdha taila 3 has got much importance in Khalitya. Mahabhringarajataila 4 is well known medicated oil used for head application which contains all the Keshya, Rasayana drugs. So, to see the efficacy of Nasya and Shiroabhyanga (head Massage) oil was selected. The study was planned to compare the efficacy of Nasya and Shiroabhyanga with mahabhringarajataila in Khalitya. Total 30 patients of Khalitya were diagnosed and divided into two groups. Group A were treated with Mahabhringarajataila Nasya , and Group B patients were treated with mahabhringarajataila Shiroabhyanga . Duration of the treatment was 8 days and patients were followed up next 16 days in both the groups. Gradations of assessment parameters were noted on 1 st day and 24 th day and analyzed using Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. There is significant difference between Group A and Group B. It was observed that mean rank for Group A is greater than Group B. Hence, we conclude that effect observed in Group A is more than Group B.
